people are finding God; why scientists are finding divinity too; that's all good, but this word “Globalisation”; I have much concern for it.

We were recently moving our equipment from one place to another; in the event I was watching a loader lift a heavy iron structure.. I say heavy because while it was lifting it, one of the hydraulic pipes burst and the structure had to be moved with another loader....

Just out of curiosity, I went to the structure and tried to lift it myself, it was the first time I realised that “I can't do this...” machinery, globalisation, currency, all these words have very dark sides...

Our human bodies can just do so much... can just lift barley our own weight, and only hear in a radius of half a kilometer, see only a kilometer ahead and touch in a proximity of a half a meter.

Yet with machinery, we can lift thousands of tonnes of weight, with technology, we can hear a voice half way around the world, we can see stars, millions of light years away and just recently, I saw a program where nerves of a body could be connected with a computer and one can experience the texture of a flower; thousands of miles away...

it's sometimes mind boggling; this world of today... I myself have more than a hundred friends at Gaia, but I still can't say truthfully, 'I know you ! ', I just know some part of you, and you know what they say: “half the truth is worse then a lie”, so all my experiences all I know is not to completion,

It never is – this knowledge of the world; for it changes, changes with time – only God can be classified as 'Complete'.

I was watching this discourse by pastor John Hagee; he was announcing that we have stopped dreaming, we are no longer persistent with what we want, we give up to easy”... that is actually good... Guratitanund Swami said something to these words:
“if it so requires - let go of 10 million tasks; but don't let go of salvation; because if you get those ten million tasks right, and fail at salvation then what have you acheived?”. Even Jesus said words to this similar meaning: "for those who seek my father, they shall have to let go of the world".

Imagine the machinery and the money and the technology; what has it actually done but to overburden our little minds with excess stuff to process... sure it has made live telecasts of religious sermons etc possible but still, I think, all in all, I would still like my ride to be a horse, my house to be plastered with cement made from cow dung, my food to be small and sweet and not exploded with chemical fertilizers.

I think it's just hormones; our young age is so full of testosterone and estrogen that admits of all these hormones running in our vains; we forget the true peace that there is in simplicity...

{smiling}

Jesus was a simple

Muhammad was a simple

Swaminarayan was a simple

etc

not one incarnation/messenger ever said that being big was good, we have with money; just done that, become big; we eat big (what ever happened to sharing a home backed loaf between a family), we have music collections that can peak into tens of gigabytes (what ever happened to the lullabies that our grand parents used to teach us) we fly to geosynchronous orbits for a 'holiday'; (modern holidays that tack you to near space experiance) we dream to be famous and popular....

my mother always says, 'one who is born; lives his/her whole life, and dies – with the least amount of people knowing of the above events; has truly lived a good life'.

we are taught to dream big, desire big, and worse of all - never give up... I guess we have to realise this that all this world is exactly a dream - a stage in which we are mere actors and puppets of our past “karma's”, and when we grow old we run out; in exhaustion and realise what a waste it all was... i'am reminded of a saint once telling me that “never start something that you know you woudn't be able to do at a 100”.

Love God; for that is the only thing we can really do while we are a hundred.

{smiling - a light moment]

talking about 100, yesterday I heard a joke on the 'The 700 Club'. An elderly was asked “what's so good about being a hundred?

“well there is less peer pressure...:-)”

stay with simplicity; for peace is in abundance there.

and pursue something, with all your might; only if it will please God. (you have to know what pleases him though – salvation for all)

I love being inspired and writing beautiful thoughts....

I know that I have great learning to do while I'm alive but damn... this blog will make you smile.

Oh and by the way... I know that it's uncontroversial for me to use the kind of videos that you see above... it's not in me, I know... but I just love Carey's songs...  so ...

Saints are wonderful people... especially those who have soft voices and explain the Lord's might with that sort of voice.... I however must say that every success is in detachment... even spiritual growth is in detachment from the Guru... A guru is like a vehicle.... you should get off the vehicle when you reach the destination- and take another vehicle if you think is necessary... but don't stick to the first grade all your life go for a masters degree...

OK this saint started the story by saying : (note its allitle yucky)

a child is born...

fed by the mother...

is washed off of its waste and urine...

and dressed everyday...

the cycle repeats

for as long as the child can't do all this alone; the child is serviced as such by the mother...

Now for the beautiful part of the blog...

A child is born :

She (Earth) gives a spirit, a body by loaning her own flesh and blood for you...

fed by the mother :

She gives food to the child in the form of fruits, vegetables etc so that it can grow...

is washed off of its waste and urine :

She makes sure that we are pure all the time so that we can be with God, the God being the father.... only plays with a child that is pure.... and 'she' is responsible for the cleanliness...

and dressed everyday :

with the help of human mothers, righteousness and other similar do's and do not's are imparted to the child.

the cycle repeats :

reincarnation; until you get it... God longs for you and is your true love.

As long as it can't do all this alone; the child is serviced as such by the mother :

as long as you don't realise the love that God has for you... Earth will meticulously do all the above... because that's what a mother does... teaches us to be pure and rid our own ignorance's.

Some of the ignorance's that every soul has to be "washed off" (if we are to be looked upon by God) are:

Anger

Lust

Greed

Jealosy

Envy

Sloth

etc...

All these are like the things that we need to "Shake off" from us.... we can do it right now.... and be one with God... but we tend to return to them - she is "supposed to have shaken him off by now but she can't" listen:

I love dido but I guess she too like us... wants to go back to what hurts... a house fly will sit on a flower as well as filth; and that is why earth; with her tremendous compassion, asked God to become in a form of a planet... so that we all can come to earth and "shake off" our negativity, desires, anger, lust etc....

You should know that God is pure... (Nirguna) and any hint of the above are like - undesirable by Him completely.... and so we have to (even if we posses them for a good cause : like lust for our partner; anger for the ignorant etc...) we should know that all this is undesirable by God; although a devotee asked the Lord Swaminarayan once that there are so many evils in the mind of man... how can man ever attain salvation? And the lord said; if the devotee has lapses in my commandments but is a firm believer in me as His salvation; he shall be forgiven of his small lapses.

Earth is such a blessing for all of us... that we should really just stop all what we are doing and fall to the ground in appreciation of what she has done... even the most honored and reputed beings that ever walked on earth were made by her... Hell! Jesus was made by her !

I know that loving God is all that she requires of us to do... and inturn God shows love to her for her compassion... but we should at least once in a while, walk bare feet... so that we can be one with her.

If you like this blog... promise yourselves that you will atleast crave for the kind of compassion she has

and always always be a bee and visit flowers only.

This blog is inspired by all the mothers of the world
